LAST

German band FREQUENCY DRIFT has been around in one form or another ever since 2006, and launched their career as recording artists with the CD "Personal Effects I" in 2008. Since then the band has been releasing new material on a regular basis, with seven studio albums to their name at the time of writing. "Last" is the most recent of those, and was issued by the German label Gentle Art of Music in 2016.

The rich, atmospheric music of Frequency Drift is one that remains as compelling as I've always found it. On this occasion perhaps a bit more uniform in sound and style than on at least some of the previous excursions by the band, but still undeniably made in a manner rather particular to this band. If cinematic progressive rock verging on metal on a few occasions sounds like music you might enjoy, and you find the moods conjured by '70s Pink Floyd to be generally appealing, I suspect this is a CD you might find appealing as well.
